*****California Gurls as a lead single was for me quite off-putting, but after hearing Teenage Dream I decided to listen to the whole album and it turned out to be very enjoyable. Except for the rather embarrassing Peacock most of the songs are single worthy. My favorites: E.T., Who Am I Living For?, Last Friday Night( T.G.I.T. ), Not Like The Movies.

*****I actually bought the deluxe version of this album the day it was released in physical copy. Yes you heard me! Physical copy! It was well worth it though, because it smelt of cotton candy. It even sounds like cotton candy, even though cotton candy doesn't make noise.. But anyway. You get what I mean. Put it this way. The album is like candy to the ears. Yes, there are like two really horrible tracks ('Circle the Drain' and 'Who Am I Living For?') which I hate with a passion, but the rest of the album is like ah-ma-zing. It's a feel good album, which could certainly spurt out a couple more hit singles following 'California Gurls' and the title track 'Teenage Dream'.

*****Katy Perry provides us with a new album, called "Teenage Dream". And it looks tasty to us, right? And we, fortunately, are not mistaken. <br><br>REVIEW:<br><br>The title track opens the album with golden key. Talking about a boy who makes her feel like a teenage again [ups! sorry if some other professional site used this phrase], "Teenage Dream" is a pretty, cute, and not graphic song. Fortunately, right? <br><br>Next is a song called "Last Friday Night [Thank God It's Friday (T.G.I.F. for short)". Talking about accidental menáge-à-tróis, being drunk, having sex, etc, etc, this is the worst song thematically. It's fun, but isn't right for kids. Only.<br><br>Californiaaaaaaaa, californiaaaaaaaaa gurls [x100]. While some people think that the song talks about harmless girls, it's not that simple. Discover yourself the details.<br><br>Firework: an masterpiece. It's bright, it's tasty, it's lovely, it's self-powering. It's the best track on the entire CD! With a music video that talks about being happy, getting over obstacles. <br><br>Peacock. Well. I don't have anything to talk about this song.<br><br>Circle the Drain, isn't anything good. Maybe it talks about Travis McCoy [Billionaire performer]. I don't give a **** about it.<br><br>The One that Got Away is also real good. E.T. IS THE SECOND BEST TRACK! Who Am I Living For? isn't nothing goooood. Pearl is good. HH: +/-, NLTM is good.

*I'm not going to pretend I like this, because I don't. But the standouts are The One That Got Away and Hummingbird Heartbeat, which still don't do much for me. I prefer her older material, or at least small portions of it.

******Simply amazing! One of the best albums and a HUMONGOUS improvement on One Of The Boys. California Gurls, Teenage Dream, Firework and E.T. are all great singles in their own rights, but she has put together a solid collection of songs on here. Circle The Drain, Pearl, Not Like The Movies, The One That Got Away are all great songs too. I just don't like Peacock. But oh well, great album and one of the best of 2010-2011.

***I like Teenage Dream and Who Am I Living For. I can tolerate a few others. But so much of this is off putting. Her vocals are terrible, and whoever is writing the lyrics for some of these songs really needs to mature, they're so childish and crap. I would never want to listen to this is one sitting. 2.5

****Well first of all, I like Katy Perry in 2010 era. I didnt like the Katy Perry when she did the bullock pop rock song "I Kissed A Girl" in 2008. And this album had amazed me. Although I like the idea of her doing the start of Teenage Dream, California Gurls, Firework and Last Friday Night (TGIF) for Side-A and made the 2011 single E.T. separately for side-B. Although towards the end, it gets mixed with the early 2000 rock music and completely becomes skippable. Mostly The One That Got Away and Pearl were the strongest track to listen. Peacock is a stupid and the only spoiled/too quirky song to listen. But all to the full, pretty decent and popular. (7/10)
